Where to Sip Indulgent Milkshakes Around D.C.

"Come to the U Street institution for the half-smokes and chili bowls, and stay for the hand-spun, “thick n’ creamy” milkshakes. Order flavors like vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, cherry, coffee, maple, or Oreo. Whipped cream, cherries, and additional toppings are available." - Lisa Ruland
